    No, just not my cup-o-tea.

    Examples, people will go to all lengths to find the best exhaust manifolds and work the hell out of them (cheat) only to get them close to flowing like a cheap set of used fifty dollar headers.

    Two barrel 'could' work ok. Decent way to limit performance, cheap, ok, I take back the two barrel comment.

    Claimer, I understand the concept but many like to tinker with motors and to go inside and massage pieces which may not cost much besides your time only to have it claimed would keep me away. Id go sealed spec motor before that. (more circle track related)

    Its not easy to invent a class that will be fun, limit cost, be safe, and keep people out of endless hours of tech lines. Then remember you have to get enough people to feel the same way. Im sure you know how hard that can be. Overall I like the class concept though. Except for the fact im only 43 years old.
